We use netCDF v3 routinely and are hoping that v4 will bring some cool and useful improvements. I'm planning on getting better acquainted with v4 as soon as a more pressing project gets knocked off. If you generate new HDF5 SRPMs and put them on a web server somewhere then I'll be happy to test them and to (try to, anyway!) create compatible netCDF v4 SRPMs. Perhaps this is something that we could work on together outside of the FE CVS area? And then, if it works well enough, pull them into FE CVS? Ed -- Edward H.
